How a visit goes
Springs and cables are under a great deal of tension, and the proper way to handle them is well understood: the right winding bars, the door clamped, the tension released in steps. That care is simply how the job is done.

2021 census: what it means at the door
Every square is one home in a hundred.
- 58 in 100 homes · older homes
- 23 in 100 homes · mostly attached
- About 58% of homes in Toronto were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.Older houses frequently have a garage door that was replaced once already, sometimes with a door chosen for the opening rather than the building. When that door reaches its end, there is a chance to pick a style that suits the house properly, and we measure with that in mind.
- Single-detached houses make up about 23% of homes in Toronto (2021 Census).Attached housing frequently has tandem or tight garages with limited headroom and little side room, so replacement openers and tracks are chosen to fit those dimensions. A low-headroom track kit or a wall-mounted jackshaft opener often solves what a standard unit cannot.
What to expect, in questions
My car is trapped inside. Can I lift the door by hand to get it out?
Lifting a crooked door is where most injuries around this problem happen, because the springs and cables are loaded unevenly and the door can shift suddenly. Tell the technician on the phone that a vehicle is inside; getting it out is part of the plan, and the door will be supported and levelled before it is raised. A short wait is far cheaper than a bent section or a hand caught between panels.
What is the difference between T-style, bead and bulb seals?
The names describe the edge that grips the retainer and the shape of the part that meets the floor. A T-style seal has T-shaped edges that slide into slotted channels along the bottom rail. A bead seal has round edges for the rounder channels found on many older steel doors. A bulb, or U-style, seal is a larger tube that compresses further and suits rough or dished floors. The retainer on your door decides which one fits.
How do I lock the garage door during a power outage?
With the door closed, pull the opener's release cord so the trolley lets go of the door, then throw the slide bolt or turn the T-handle to lock. When power returns, unlock first, check both bars are clear of the track, and then re-engage the opener as its manual describes, usually by running it once. Keeping to that order is what protects the lock and the opener.
What lubricant is right for a garage door?
A lubricant made for garage doors, applied lightly to hinge knuckles, roller stems and the springs, following the door maker's own recommendation, since the right product and whether bearings are included varies by manufacturer. General-purpose penetrating oils are thin and wash away, and heavy grease attracts grit. Nothing goes on the track raceway or on a nylon or plastic wheel. The opener's chain or screw rail may take a lithium grease according to its manual, and the manual for your door names what its maker prefers.
